Could Play Boost Students’ Math Performance?

ED Surge

Mostly an administrator these days, Fisher still teaches honors algebra at Breakwater, a pre-K-8th independent school in Portland, Maine. In early education, where Clements specializes, he usually constructs intentional lessons, and then sets up the classroom so that as students are playing, they bump into mathematics at every turn.

The Math Revolution You Haven’t Heard About

ED Surge

Over the summer, the professor from the University of California at Santa Cruz, spent a week at Harvard to learn how to redesign the mathematics for life sciences courses his institution offers. A room of educators gets schooled on the rigors of mathematical modeling in the life sciences. It left an impression.

What is a Growth Mindset?

Ask a Tech Teacher

The cerebral and physical traits they were born with are just the starting point. It’s easy to say, “Cassie just doesn’t get Algebra” but notice why. They come to believe that understanding and adapting to this process equates to success. Are there holes that need filling? Does she do things differently?

Expression Evaluation and Fundamental Physics

Stephen Wolfram

And it’s all based on ideas from our Physics Project —and on a fundamental correspondence between what’s happening at the lowest level in all physical processes and in expression evaluation. And this is where we can start making an analogy with physics. And now there’s a deep analogy to physics.
